"My Kite"

Flying high on a string
My kite looks down on me
Today this first day of spring
I never realized how green it could be

The colors that is around
Where my kite flies over
The sound of birds abound
While they hid in the trees' cover

How good it is to feel so free
My kite and I on this day
As it flies over a green tree
In nature scene I'm in it sway

My kite sees all this earth
In its place I wish to be
To fly over this good earth
And for me to also see
